Texas sued the Biden administration in an effort to block a new rule that seeks to protect the privacy of women living in states that ban abortion who travel out of state for the procedure.

In a lawsuit filed on Wednesday, opens new tab in Lubbock, Texas, the state is asking a federal judge to strike down the rule, which prohibits healthcare providers and insurers from giving state law enforcement authorities information about reproductive healthcare that is legal where it was provided.

President Joe Biden, a Democrat, said in announcing the rule in April that no one should have their medical records “used against them, their doctor, or their loved one just because they sought or received lawful reproductive health care.”

    I mean, if I’m dating a girl (I’m married now, and not looking to change that) I’d be curious about her pussy resume.

    More so to know if they carry any sort of VD. Mutual STD testing should be more common, in my mind. Doesn’t help for drunk hook-ups, but if you’re looking to get into a real relationship, I feel it should be more normalized.

    People don’t get tested enough, I’ve been safe, but I should have been in a mutual testing situation in the past. Nothing happened to my dick, but this girl got around - I found out later. Wouldn’t have minded as much if I knew she had a clean bill of health, but that was never ascertained.

    To people worrying, I got a vasectomy at 24. The incision site and the rest of my genitals got infected. They tested for STDs first (I was clean) and it was just was a general wound infection that took antibiotics. But the fear, man, the fear.

      Testing is not about a “pussy resume”; it’s about the state of her health right now, as it should be. You’re not entitled to information about a partner’s past.

      Young hetero dudes have a fixation about not wearing condoms and I don’t understand it.

        To be fair its partly due to young women not wanting to wear them either. Ive found most people don’t like them at all and prefer other means of preventing pregnancy or disease spread.

          Male condoms are far more effective than female ones are. Never mind the fact that women are almost always in charge of birth control, ie: taking the pill, using an IUD, getting shots, etc.

          Men need to be stepping up to the plate on STDs.

          How effective are internal condoms at preventing pregnancy?

          • If you use them perfectly every single time you have sex, internal condom effectiveness is 95%. But people aren’t perfect, so in real life they’re about 79% effective — that means about 21 out of 100 people who use internal condoms as their main method of birth control will get pregnant each year.

          How effective are condoms against pregnancy?

          • If you use condoms perfectly every single time you have sex, they’re 98% effective at preventing pregnancy. But people aren’t perfect, so in real life condoms are about 87% effective — that means about 13 out of 100 people who use condoms as their only birth control method will get pregnant each year.

            I find those stats super confusing. Obviously having sex once has a lot less chance of causing a pregnancy than doing it every day for a year, so for them to quantify the annual risk of pregnancy, there must be a built-in assumption about how often people have sex. I find the idea of there being a normal amount of sex that everyone is expected to have weird and kind of gross.

              Its the result of a study most likely. People reported their type of contraceptive type and any problems with it and whether they got pregnant that year?
